| One empty drawer... |
The filing cabinet drawer you see on the left was full. The filing folders you see in the tub are what I pared it down to. The binder is just to hold the files upright.
I have 5 more of those drawers to go plus two more the same size in my credenza. That's not counting my other filing cabinet in the room.
I don't want to do the math to get a total number of hours needed just for the filing cabinets.
Of course I need to figure out where the files being moved are going until the loft is cleared out. Oh boy that's another little problem of logistics!

| The start of a pile of books going to new office |
1. going to my new office in the loft
2. going to Kak's pine bookcase in the sunroom
3. going to the basement
I might take this opportunity to inventory the books too.
I have a pretty big stack of papers for burning and some have been shredded.
It's fun to find things that have been mis-filed or that I forgot I had! I found a short story I wrote about 12 years ago and had no idea where it had gone.
I want to create some simple drawings to go with the short story and turn it into a 15 - 20 page children's book. Then I'll publish it through Shutterfly and give a copy to each of my grandchildren.
Do you think I have time? Hubs has already cautioned me not to get side-tracked.

Well done, Lorine. Do you fancy a trip to Scotland to help me get my office "rationalised"? I have recently found duplicate copies of books in my bookcase of reference books. A sign of too much time spent in second hand bookshops! :-) Jo
Great beginning, Lorine. Don't forget to do lots of stretches since you're bending and turning a lot going through files etc. Save your back! Cheers.
Great start! Just remember to focus, focus, focus.
Oh you definitely need to index your books. I kept buying the same ones. Indexed them and it's a huge help.
Looks like great progress so far! Don't try to figure out the hours or you might get bummed out! :-)
